My father whom just passed away bought a 95 ZR1 brand new. It was the car I learned to drive manual in. Unfortunately it was destroyed along with everything else when our home was leveled by an EF4 tornado. I’m thinking of selling my Callaway to buy a C4 Zr1. We live not very far from Hennesey Performance and my father always wanted to twin turbo it. So I’m thinking of picking up where he left off. Or possibly creating a 415 stroker out of the lt5. It’s just an insane amount of money. Almost double what I gave for my 427dart ls next2 long block.
One of the fondest memories I have with my father is our weekly trip up to 180mph. We have almost endless roads that are almost perfect for top end runs. I still have his old ZR1 registry sticker. Life begins at 180
As a car enthusiast let me start off by saying “HOLY CRAP” !!! “THAT WAS AWESOME”!!!

@@lukehelpmetakethisdangmaskoff I have dump valves at the rear that's why it sounds so good push a button and it's quite I have factory mufflers so no drone when driving
Sounds like effing NASCAR, love that high revving V8 sound. Honestly a stockish spec C4 ZR-1 racing series with that DOHC V8 would have been effing epic. Its been proven that motor loves to rev and holds several at the time endurance records for a production car maintaining its top speed for hours on end.
Yeah it was the first step out of the automotive dark ages and into the modern era. It’s not my favorite generation but it was the biggest improvement generation to generation-wise, the C3 was a bit of a mess.
First time I've ever heard a C4 ZR-1 engine wide open, all the way to top speed. Beautiful noise. The car was very stable, too. I read the C4 was actually developed to be aero-stable up to 200 mph. You got up to about 185 mph, right? Looks like the Corvette engineers did a good job. The original ZR-1 engine always gets lots of praise, but the rest of the C4 is way under-appreciated, today. Thanks for posting!
@@glencollins4962 BAD ASS CAR. THAT’s what I am talking about!!! I’m 41 and joined the USAF 🇺🇸 back in ‘02 and have been overseas ever since. These were the types of cars the drivers needed skills AND courage to pilot at those speeds...Sure modern BMWs, Mercs and Audis are just as fast...but without any real passion, not really ‘soulless’ but ‘ sterilized. 155mph+ in an M5 is ‘subdued’ where as in a vette or WS6 or even...dare I say it...an early 90s Porsche just have a RAWNESS to them. That sound MAN!!! Bad 2 the BONE 🦴!!!
The C4 is my dream car. Last year I bought a new 10 speed 5.0 at a great price, but I will own a 92-96 C4 one day. They are beautiful, timeless, and the car I wanted for so long. Thanks for sharing.
cv 67 well thank you. Its a nice color, its going to need some love right now the car didnt run well in ”full power”. Some injectors were bad and also some coil. So decided to start a little project now. So it will get some love.
Wow, that engine sounds amazing! Great job on the homemade exhaust! Where was this filmed? It is so cool to see because I've always wondered what it would look like to go flat-out on a backroad like that, at 180+, and see everything rushing by. It gives you a sense of just how fast it is. Glad I found this video, it is a gem!
That's movin! I had a opportunity to run my 04 Z06 and was able to go 148. Had I known the course or had a 2nd chance I'd have gone 160+. My C5 was rock steady and I'll never forget it.
Hi I did 6 runs on this occasion every run faster and further though about a C5 Z06 didn't feel like my ZR-1 at all you need to find an event and have another go at taping your Z06 out
I LOVE those stearing wheels, came in firebird and Camaro's too. I like them because it's relaxing pushing them in they are nice and squishy it's like popping the bubble plastic " in a sense "
Somebody is gonna say it. Might as well be me. That ain't how you down shift bro. It's called Rev matching for a reason. Also... the balls on this guy. That kind of speed... no cage... damn squirrel cross the road and instant death. Fml
@@glencollins4962 I know that's sarcasm but I'll play along as I'm just sitting here riding to work.. for those that don't know... you Rev match when you down shift for two reasons. One so that you don't shock the rear tires. And two so that you don't shock the power train. Rev matching when downshifting is simply matching the rpm of the engine to the wheel speed. Simply, if you're running 60 mph in 5th gear and you want todown shift to 4th, you want to blip the throttle to match the rpm you would be at if you were running 60 in 4th. Quite simple. Better for clutch. Eliminates accidental lock up. Less stress on powertrain and drivetrain. Now, I wasn't berating the guy. I actually was complimenting him for being brave enough to make the run under those circumstances. But as far as down shifting, revving the engine, letting the rpms fall back down, then dumping the clutch and having the rpms shoot back up..... well that ain't the way its done. You do it right, you only hear one Rev. This concludes today's lesson
That road just goes straight forever, wish we had something similar around here. I appreciate how he never touched his brakes he just down shifted using the engine to slow the car down to a crawl.
Yeah I think GM definitely knew what they were doing with the body shape and the aerodynamics. I think it's still interesting that it is the only double overhead cam engine put in a Corvette. Figures GM didn't make it either, they had Lotus design it and Mercury Marine I believe make it.

@@glencollins4962 definitely one of my dream cars to own! One of the most historical cars ever made. Just incredible, now and when it came out.
@@Twobarpsi yes you are correct it's a great car to drive
GREAT video

I'm considering this as a project car for me and my dad. Do you think that this model would be a good choice?
Depends on how good you are at repairing things and there is the cost if you live in America it's a lot more cost affect also you have to love the car other wise it's just a chore to do be realistic about your abilities I am a Diesel Mechanic and have been for 38 years worked and worked on a lot of different equipment I have done all the work myself so far
